RUGER LCP .380 LOOSE SLIDE ...CHECK-YOUR's

Anybody else notice or is it just my gun,the slide is loose on my gun when I wiggle it back and forth.....Not forward and backward...but up and down....Seems to be alot of slop in between the rails. I shot the **** out of it....700...Rounds over a year or so....I don't sit on it,in my Uncle Mikes size 2 holster...I think I take good care of it...but it has a very lot of SLOP in the rails,just seeing if anyone else has the same thing with their LCP-gun?????......

With a round chambered,it has a lot of slop,up and down...after the trigger is pulled it seems to have alot less slop in the slide area...like the hammer tightens things up...You can pull the medal slide apart from the poleimer plastic frame,manly out at the end of the barrel....It's not real bad but it's noticeable....Maybe it's just wear ???...I didn't notice it before the other day.....Maybe it's just me..........

Called ruger today...they took my phone number,said they where going to call back in a few days...I told them the slide was real sloppy and you can rock the slide back and forth with one finger on one end and another finger on the other end....and it is just over all real sloppy and loose,see what happens???.....

WELL RUGER called back at 10:07 AM...This morning,just like they said....ST.Louis time that would be what??..8:00 AM Prescott AZ.time??...They must do call backs first thing in the morning??...The man said that the small pistols that every one is making now on the slide rail design,is made to move 1/8th of an inch or so and the barrel locks...He asured me that this is normal on these small guns....So I guess I'll live with it...I know there just cheap little pocket guns and not $$$ thousand dollar guns,so I guess I need to treat it as schutch.......Anyway that's my story with ruger....They did call back real Quick.....................THANKS.....RUGER..............

Just got back from shooting my ruger LCP down at the river before it got dark....Shot a box of 50 Blazer shells and didn't have any jams...Had to check-out the play in the rails one more time,after talking to the guy from ruger this morning...Yes theres some play but I guess I'm just going to have to deal with it...It's just a cheaper made gun.....The trigger cuts into your finger pretty good after you shoot 50 rounds that's for sure...Anyway going to clean it and put it away..............

Shot a box of 50 Blazer shell today and had one jam...Still don't like the slop in the slide...Man the plastic trigger eat's into your finger,I'm liking this gun less and less the more I shoot it....I like how small it is but the trigger is killing my finger...I know it's not made to be a range gun,but if you can't go out and have fun shooting the damn thing...Why have it....???......THINKING...TRADE...in the near future.........It's just the damn plastic trigger.........

So, in your own words, quit trying to use it as a range gun....

The whole design purpose of the little pocket guns are for C.C., period!

Run a few mags though it to stay proficient with it at the range, then put it aside and go to your range guns.
